[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My name is Xiomara, A common name in Mexico, where I was born and where my parents are from. It is not a common name here in the United States and people have a very hard time with it. Many many people can’t pronounce it.

I can’t blame them because it’s not a name you encounter here which is why never in 1 million years would I name my children unique or uncommon (to America) spelling. Save your daughter hears of headaches and just give her an easy to spell or pronounce name.[/quote]

I am a random white person and I've known more than one person with this name. It's pretty, btw.

Again as a random white person, living in a multicultural city, I have encountered many names that I didn't know at first. So I ask, how do you pronounce? Or I listen for it. I am always respectful and do my best to say correctly. After, I know the name and it's no longer an unknown name.

It's not hard at all, or 'yooneek' or a 'tradgideigh'. Everyone doesn't have to be named Emma or Luke.[/quote]
